Motor insurance broker needed!

Options
Please has anyone got any recommendations for a GOOD motor insurance broker? This isn't for home, it's for work, where we have quite specific requirements for a Ford Transit van. Lots of insurers won't touch us with a bargepole, so I need someone else to do the running round to see if we can get a better deal each year.

We used to have a smashing broker, but the couple running the business retired and passed the motor business onto a company who take ages to answer the phone in the first place, the section I need to speak to is then engaged, and they rarely phone back if I leave a message! It's taken me since last Friday to add a new driver! :mad:

All suggestions gratefully received!

    I also use A-Plan Insurance, but the Newbury branch 01635 521818. I agree they are a very good company to deal with

    Thanks, all. I will set some time aside to give them all a call and see if they want our business. Any broker allowing me to speak to a real human bean within the first minute of the call has a head start over our current setup, who interestingly no-one has recommended!
